Sorry. It's just a park then.
I've heard that it was a bit of a muddy mess. I wasn't around.
Yep. Marketing. Kodak isn't very good at it these days though.
I want Kodachrome back just so I can see Cinestill try to sell home K14 developing kits.
EDIT: And Kodachrome Basin Park is a Utah state park, not national. (I visited last year, and shot a roll of Ektachrome there--since that was the best I could do.)
I think there was a Kodachrome II. How about Kodachrome 2.0 in keeping with modern technology.
You could very well be right. A little creative marketing is all that's necessary. Plus, ICE during scanning will work with E version as it doesn't work with the original Kodachrome.

The thing I’ve seen mentioned a number of times is that Kodak has special six element enlargers, but photofinishers continued to use their old equipment ( e.g. https://mikeeckman.com/2022/11/kepplers-vault-103-kodak-disc-film/ ). Now whether this is a myth that keeps being repeated I don’t know, but the images on the tiny enprints you used to get with disc were not very impressive, but copying with a macro lens can give images which could be enlarged bigger the 5” x 3.5”I don't this is really true because at the time of its introduction in 1982, if a lab wanted to process and print Disc then they had to invest in the equipment. The minimum this would entail is a special rack for Disc film on C41 dip & dunk machines (not a huge investment) and then the carrier for Disc on the volume printers (this was a bit of an investment) Any Disc carriers that I saw were well made and had good optics.
If you look at the contemporary literature APS was a bit of a success initially, but some decisions put people off e.g. if you shot a roll on P (panorama) setting then you could unexpectedly be charged $$$$ when you picked up the photos. Towards the turn of the century there were 35mm systems that were as easy as APS (e.g. Kodak’s EasyLoad)The format was capable of good quality in the right hands but like, in general, 110 was of poorer quality than 126. Disc was of poorer quality than 110.
I think with the demise of the Disc format, the consumer changed over to 35mm (the growth of simple point & shoot) and later to a small extent APS.

The rationale for APS was that it would aid in the gradual switch over of the market from film to digital
In a lot of restaurants, tips are pooled and split among the wait staff, counter staff, cooks, and cleaners - whoever isn't management but is working that shift. So, you pick up an order and the only thing that's different for anyone who works there is the fact that you weren't served at a table. Everything still needed to be prepared and packed. That's the reason for the expectation.
Apparently the film/VAT/sales tax /tipping/ Advantix/ Kodachrome craze isn't quite dead on Photrio!
Can I get a full year membership for free?
Nor is the Nikon F2 craze dead yet!
That is a no-brainer. It depend on if was done by Sover Wong or not.I'm still wondering what the VAT/ tax implications could be if the F2 Was or Wasn't given a CLA.

Yes as someone once said: "You can't go Wong with Sover"
On my death bed when few details, if any, about Photrio will remain, this will remain with me

Me too. But like 90% of my pictures have been b&w anyway, especially with (35mm) Film. It's only that landscapes does look better into color, at times.I feel priced out of color photography. Between the film, shipping, and the development it’s about $30 per roll. So I’m shooting less of it.

I decide early last year to go completely with B&W, but I'm still considering putting a toe back in the water with ECN2. You made me look at current C41 prices, since it's been a while. HOLY MOLY!
Right? It just makes it less fun. I have some color 120 left that I’m saving for a trip to Yellowstone in August. But after that I’m done.
